Behind the Frontier tells the story of the Indians in Massachusetts as English settlements encroached on their traditional homeland between 1675 and 1775, from King Philip?s War to the Battle of Bunker Hill. Daniel R. Mandell explores how local needs and regional conditions shaped an Indian ethnic group that transcended race, tribe, village, and clan, with a culture that incorporated new ways while maintaining a core of "Indian" customs. He examines the development of Native American communities in eastern Massachusetts, many of which survive today, and observes emerging patterns of adaptation and resistance that were played out in different settings as the American nation grew westward in the nineteenth century.

Since the 1960s the number of Indian immigrants and their descendants living in the United States has grown dramatically. During the same period, the make-up of this community has also changed—the highly educated professional elite who came to this country from the subcontinent in the 1960s has given way to a population encompassing many from the working and middle classes. In her fascinating account of Indian immigrants in New York City, Madhulika S. Khandelwal explores the ways in which their world has evolved over four decades.How did this highly diverse ethnic group form an identity and community? Drawing on her extensive interviews with immigrants, Khandelwal examines the transplanting of Indian culture onto the Manhattan and Queens landscapes. She considers festivals and media, food and dress, religious activities of followers of different faiths, work and class, gender and generational differences, and the emergence of a variety of associations.Khandelwal analyzes how this growing ethnic community has gradually become "more Indian," with a stronger religious focus, larger family networks, and increasingly traditional marriage patterns. She discusses as well the ways in which the American experience has altered the lives of her subjects.

Anand G. Mahindra, one of the most successful business men of India Inc., recently added another feather to his cap--Satyam Computer Services Ltd, which was counted as the fourth largest Information Technology (IT) services firm of India until the revelation of a financial fraud by its founder chairman. It was a risk that even the top three Indian IT companies of India avoided, but Anand Mahindra went ahead with the calculated risk of bidding for Satyam that turned out to be--historical and game changer-- in his own words. Venturbay Consultants Pvt Ltd, a subsidiary of Tech Mahindra Ltd., India's sixth largest software exporter outbid the diversified conglomerate Larsen & Toubro Ltd, U.S. based Cognizant Technology Solutions and American investor Wilbur Ross to acquire a controlling stake in Satyam Computer. Anand Mahindra was among those business heads at the helm of family owned businesses who acknowledged that ownership should be separate from management. The professionalism has paid off well and his flagship firm Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd, one of India's leading automotive manufacturers known for its tractors, has carved out a niche space in the passenger vehicles space also with successful sports utility vehicle (SUV) models such as Scorpio and Xylo. The Scorpio, developed from scratch for just $120 million, became a case study at the Harvard Business School. Another group company Mahindra Holidays and Resorts has just ended a four-month long drought at India's initial public offering (IPO) market. When Anand Mahindra joined the family business in early 1980s, he had to struggle to change the work culture at the grass root level. Then he focused on diversifying the business and the Group has now significant presence in sectors such as automobiles, financial services, trade and logistics, hospitality, automotive components, information technology and infrastructure development. Mahindra, India's top multi-utility vehicle maker and the world's fourth-largest tractor maker, has about 30% of the Indian tractor's market share, the world's largest by volume. Mahindra also has strong presence in urban and foreign markets like Russia, Brazil, Columbia and Africa. Mahindra was a co-founder of Kotak Mahindra Finance Ltd., which in 2003 was converted into a bank.

Despite popular belief, Native peoples did not simply disappear from colonial New England as the English extended their domination in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Rather, the Native peoples in such places as Natick, Massachusetts, creatively resisted colonialism, defended their lands, and rebuilt kin networks and community through the strategic use of English cultural practices and institutions. So why did New England settlers believe that the Native peoples had vanished? In this thoroughly researched and astutely argued study, historian Jean M. O?Brien reveals that, in the late eighteenth century, the Natick tribe experienced a process of ?dispossession by degrees,? which rendered them invisible within the larger context of the colonial social order, thus enabling the construction of the myth of Indian extinction.
